Easter is not a federal holiday in the United States, so federal offices that are open on Sundays stay open, though some private businesses may choose to close. However, it is an official public holiday in several countries, including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and many European nations, where government offices, banks, and many private businesses are typically closed. Some places also close for Good Friday and Easter Monday to make a long weekend.
